LOS ANGELES (GaeaTimes.com) — On the grand finale of American Idol 2010, two finalists Lee DeWyze and Crystal Bowersox put their heart and soul to earn the maximum votes. But they were not the only singers to set the stage on fire. Will Young, the first winner of the British “Pop Idol,” performed “Leave Right Now,” on the final episode of American Idol.
Will Young became the first champion of British “Pop Idol,” in 2002. Since then he has been going to “American Idol” and similar reality shows to inspire the competitors. His soulful rendition of “Leave Right Now” is a popular UK song from his 2003 album “Friday’s Child.”
Will Young’s Leave Right Now remains as the most appropriate goodbye song throughout Season 9. So, performing the song at the emotional moment of the final episode was quite justified.
